Loch Lomond, Stirling Castle and Kelpies Tour from Edinburgh
Overview
The Loch Lomond tour from Edinburgh has a little of everything that Scotland has to offer, from a leisurely cruise on bonnie Loch Lomond to the mountains of the ‘Highlands in miniature’ and majestic Stirling Castle.
Leaving Edinburgh, we're soon at the Kelpies, the largest equine sculptures in the world.
Our stop in Balloch is a great opportunity to enjoy the views over Loch Lomond to Ben Lomond in the distance. You can learn about the area’s lawless Vikings and feuding clans during an optional loch cruise.
Then it's onwards, further into the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, an area of outstanding natural beauty where Rob Roy MacGregor was celebrated as a hero and an outlaw. There's time for a photo or two and a lunch stop in this area.
We end our day at Stirling Castle where you can step back in time to the lavish days of Scotland’s Renaissance kings and queens.
